I'm a double-boarded Child/Adolescent/Adult Psychiatrist, working mostly online. I run a cash-based insurance hybrid practice. I help you submit your itemized statement to you insurance company but I'm considered out-of-network. My sub-specialty is ADHD, but I can help with any issue from A-Z. I have great computer software that puts the patient in charge of their treatment. We can do everything online: scheduling appointments, complete forms, communicate, electronically prescribe, have our interview, and discuss treatment, all from the comforts of your phone or computer.

My ideal client is someone who values their mental health and understands the importance of addressing any mental health concerns to maximize their overall well-being and success in their professional and personal lives. They may be struggling with stress, anxiety, depression or other mental health issues that are impacting their ability to function at their best. My ideal client is also someone who values discretion and privacy, as they may be hesitant to seek mental health support due to concerns about their reputation or professional standing. They appreciate a safe and supportive place.

My approach is based on holistic psychiatry, which uses medications, therapy and complementary/alternative treatments to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms. I address the combined impact of sleep, lifestyle, relationships, nutrition and chronic medical conditions on well-being, and use cutting edge tools like genetic testing to guide personalized treatment with medication. My practice specializes in treating patients who are struggling with depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, insomnia, ADHD, OCD and day to day stress. I also offer TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) Therapy for depression and anxious depression.

It can be difficult to ask for help when you're struggling with your mental health. I value a relaxed, authentic, humble, and casual approach to mental healthcare in which myself and the patient can have a conversation and make decisions together about their care. My goal is patient comfort, trust, and empowerment.

Having trained as a psychiatrist, an art therapist, and a Jungian analyst, I approach each individual as unique. I focus on the value of that uniqueness and encourage the development of individual solutions to the problems and suffering that individuals bring into treatment. I view anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and problems in relationships as manifestations of unsuccessful attempts to adapt to both the outer world of collective demands and the inner world of one's own individual feelings and needs. Being healthy in the world means balancing the needs for individuality with needs to fit into the collective world.

Just like physical health our mental health needs to be cared for in a therapeutic nonjudgmental way.

Since 1990, I have offered services as an advanced practice psychiatric nurse. Before obtaining my advanced degree, I practiced as a registered nurse caring for individuals with varying illnesses. My experience has taught me about the complex relationships between the brain and the body, recognizing that emotional and physical responses are intricately connected. Participation in psychotherapy can begin the process of healing and self-discovery.
